If trendy shops and buzzy restaurants surrounded by vivid street art are your “where-I-wanna-be” place, then Wynwood is the place for you.
This vibrant, exciting hotspot was first made famous by the Wynwood Walls—an outdoor museum displaying 35 murals by world-renowned artists. And it just exploded from there. Hip artisanal eateries, craft breweries, and funky shops with an industrial chic vibe moved in fast and Miami’s coolest neighborhood was born. Guided tours and featured artists change frequently, making it an ever-fresh, repeat destination for visitors and locals alike. And a very cool place to live.
